Corona Extra
This, quite simply, is the greatest beer on the planet.
Maybe ever farther, we just don't know yet. Put in a lime, add some chips and
salsa on the side, and you can't help but loosen up and have a good time. The
Corona sold in Mexico is actually much better than the export. The alcohol
content is slightly higher, but the taste is even more "happy", and the price is
cheaper. I bought 20 bottles straight from the brewery in Rosarita Beach for
$6.00!
Pacifico
For some reason, this beer does not seem to be popular outside
of Mexico and Southern California yet. If you get a chance to try it, do. It is
darker and heavier than Corona, but the quality is still excellent. There are
some moods that only an ice cold Pacifico can agree with. It has been said (not
by me, by several drunk Mexicans) that this is a man's beer, so all you ladies
out there who can hang will have to prove that wrong! You won't be sorry.
Besides, there is nothing sexier than a woman who can hold her liquor, I always
say.
Red Dog and Icehouse Beer
These two are the ultimate "urban white trash
in training" beers. If too many yuppies show up to the party, "let the dog out"
and just sit back and laugh as they scatter like cockroaches under a light. Of
course these were me and my friends' beers of choice when I was in the Marines.
If you can drink these, you know that you are someone who cares more about
having fun than impressing people. What a concept :)
Jose Cuervo Gold
Whether your lining em up at Hussongs Cantina, taking
it easy with a strawberry margarita in T.J, or drinking it from a senorita's
belly button on the beach, accept no substitute. This stuff is not a drink, it's
a lifestyle. It really will change the way you look at the world. 'Nuff said.
Goldschlager
This stuff is just plain dangerous! It tastes like cinammon
gasoline, which makes sense because it is high octane. Real gold flakes float in
the drink. A purpose for them only makes sense to someone who has actually been
drinking Goldschlager for several hours. A drinking game me and my friends used
to play in the Marines that I don't recommend: Goldschlager Hockey. You need 2
shot glasses, a bottle of Goldshlager (one will be enough, trust me on this
one), a tv, and a Sega, Nintendo, or Playstation with an NHL Hockey game. The
rules are very simple, both sides slam one shot before the opening face off,
then each time a person is scored on, he takes another shot. Caution: this game
becomes more fun as it progresses, but sometimes does not make it to the third
period.
